The Syndicate

I'm sorry everyone. I haven't read anything since this morning. There's a serious situation happening in my real life that erupted today. Don't know details yet, but I'll probably not be around much in the coming days. I'm sorry.

I just want to put this out there: my absolute failure to participate so far has absolutely nothing to do with lack of respect for the hosts or my fellow players. I'm terribly sad that it is being interpreted that way.
I'm doing my best, but I was never very good at juggling.

It's her first game, she probably doesn't know it's customary to say who you're voting for in chat.

I think we're supposed to say who we're voting for in the thread. "Chat" is where you do all your talking about killing civs and ruling the world.

Still reading.

I dunno. I seem to remember that keys is a player who posts when he has shit to contribute or points to make, and who loves to get into head-to-heads...but who is not too concerned about posting "regularly" just for the sake of posting regularly.....if that makes sense? I could be remembering wrong though.

Also, my re-read of Day 0 is way less interesting than I thought it would be.
DFaraday was more before the MP thing started, but not super active, so the drop-off isn't that interesting.
Other then that, I'm not really finding anything useful.

Hey, y'all.
I'm here and reading and ready to get my head in this game, now that my Terrible No Good Very Bad week is winding down (only, of course, to rev itself up again tomorrow. FML). Nobody commented on my vote for Turnip Head.....including Turnip Head.
This makes me feel very sad and inconsequential.

I know MP expressed some concerns about TH's opportunistic push on him, but does anyone else have TH thoughts?

I'm also interested in looking at people who were super hyped up and active during the Day 0 phase (indicating that they've been around and involved and excited to play), but who have dropped off the radar since some actual discussion started (which might suggest that they're taking advantage of having the heat on someone else and doing the usual baddie thing of hiding in the shadows of the overwhelmin volumed of players for the first few days until the herd is culled a little). I'm going to go and look back and see if anything strikes me as kooky in that respect....

I think I'm going to vote for Turnip Head. Because I love him.



.....aaaaand because I think his push on MP was opportunistic.

Fuckballs.
Phone posting and accidentally switched to the French keyboard, which is a whole new world of autocorrect insanity.

Essentially I said that I'm not suspicious of anyone involved in this recent kerfuffle, and will be looking elsewhere for suspects.

I've skimmed through in an attempt to catch up. Being in three games was a ridiculous choice on my part, but I am reallyreallyreally going to try not to totally bail on any games.....starting tomorrow.


Based on the last little round of insanity, my thoughts are as follows:
MP is doing too many drugs
Dana is speaking truth
Enrique has done nothing suspicious
Epi is bossy and strangely confident for Day 1 (though I get the impression that this type of confidence is really not all tht "strange" for Épi)

Un actualité not suspicieuse of Amy of the plâtres involucre in the récent brouhaha...I Will look élysée gère for m'y voté

Question: Can I start watching Dr. Who with just the "reboot"? Or do I need to watch the originals? Where/when does the "reboot" start?

I have never seen a single episode of Dr. Who, nor do I know anything about it.

BUT! David Tennant is my favourite (modern) Hamlet, so he will get my vote.

I will also vote for number 5, because 5 is a dignified and beautiful number.

Hi. I'm going to be pretty AWOL today and tomorrow due to life. But I'm here, and I'll catch up as soon as I get a chance.
